Run That By Me

You smile to sweeten what you're saying
But you wound with your words so fine
We all get the lives that we deserve, why you're cruel to my kind?
Do you think that I've got no feelings left to hurt inside?
Your aim is high and you don't miss much
But my eyes are open wide

If I'm gonna push to boat out
To meet that tidal wave
I'm gonna need more than a moment
To find a face that's brave
And if I'm looking in the desert
To find the blazing flowers
I'm gonna need more than a minute
More like 24 hours

(Run that by me one more time) I gotta have a chance to recover
(Run that by me one more time) I gotta have a chance
(Run that by me one more time) Before you blow my mind and my cover
(Run that by me one more time) 'cause I'm strong enough

So you saw this coming, did you?
You give pride while I take the fall
You never thought to warn me, did you?
Just sit back and watch it all

You straightjacket my dreams
And chainsaw my intentions
I hate to shatter your illusions
But I'm strong enough to carry on

If I'm gonna push the boat out
To meet that tidal wave
I'm gonna need more than a moment
To find a face that's brave
And if I'm looking in the desert to find the blazing flowers
I'm gonna need more than a minute
More like 24 hours

(Run that by me one more time) I gotta have a chance to recover
(Run that by me one more time) I gotta have a chance
(Run that by me one more time) before you blow my mind and my cover
(Run that by me one more time) 'cause I'm strong enough

I get crushed while you never mind
I get crushed while you never mind
And this is all the well I have
Excuse me whilst I dig it up, dig it up
I get crushed while you never mind
I get crushed while you never mind
And this is all the strength I have
Excuse me whilst I dig it up, dig it up

(Run that by me one more time) I gotta have a chance to recover
(Run that by me one more time) I gotta have a chance
(Run that by me one more time) before you blow my mind and my cover
(Run that by me one more time) 'cause I'm strong enough

(Run that by me one more time) you don't feel love
(Run that by me one more time) you don't feel why
(Run that by me one more time) you don't feel love
(Run that by me one more time) you don't feel
